| | Is it possible to run ROM as an NT Service? If so, what software should I get to do it? And will it be implemented later directly in the code? ( I suppose I could look at how the creators of SMAUG did it ). | | Top |

| I did the SMAUG service stuff, see the file services.c in the SMAUG download. You could use it virtually unchanged for ROM (search for the word SMAUG and change it to ROM should do the trick).
Also, change comm.c and a couple of other places where the services code hooks in. For instance, here is an important place:
#ifdef WIN32
int mainthread( int argc, char **argv )
#else
int main( int argc, char **argv )
#endif
This is because "main" is really in services.c, and the original main is now called mainthread. |
